  1. Hoi Francis,
    Ik ben de muren van ons toilet grijs aan het schilderen. En dat doe ik met ontzettend veel plezier, want het wordt zo mooi...
    Ik wens je een heel fijne zondag,
    Lieve groet,
    Mirjam

  2. Most beautiful and TALENTED FRIEND,

    I have a tear STILL on my cheek, that ran down from my eye about 3 minutes ago, when I read your comment. I did not dry my eyes for I wanted to linger in the sweet moment when the salty tears issued from my eyes. You EXPRESS YOURSELF MORE BEAUTIFULLY in English than you know. Your words to me are a perfume of friendship that still puts me in great wonder. You will find the GIFT and PURPOSE you are seeking (my next blog post in fact!) because dearest Francis, it is already sitting on your lap, it is already stirring in your heart. It is the gift of writing.

    You may not be able to work with the children at this time, but what you have done with them has shaped you. The time you do have now, use it BY USING your writing skills. Yes. I see it. YOU HAVE IT. YOU LOVE IT. And like Aristotle says up above, the pleasure you have will put perfection....you have a great pleasure for writing and IT SHOWS.

    I thank you this morning dearest Francis....I tell you, my Dutch friends are just the most amazing human beings....love to you on this glorious SUNDAY. Anita

  3. Morning my friend...I have missed some of your posts...how can that be?
    Your quote is so true today isn't it!?
    I am officially on Spring Break...and if feels more like Christmas break as it has been snowing for days!
    I am glad to have some time off as it has been a very busy few months for me. I will not have a break as I will be working hard on my book but at least I can do it from my home.
    My daughter is off on a missions trip to Mexico for 2 weeks and I am starting to worry about her already and she does not even leave until Tuesday.
    Sending you ooodles of love...I read that Elisabeth had her 4th chemo and is doing well...so happy to hear that. It will soon be behind her and YOU.
    Happy day to you...find joy. xoxoxo

  4. This is just a relaxing day for me, Francis. It is raining here today, but I don't mind, as I love the rain too. Maybe it is nature's way of getting prepared for spring. Your Easter eggs are so pretty. Happy Sunday.
